Horseback riding is really dangerous

If people don't think horseback riding is hard and dangerous their crazy.I think horseback riding should be #1 on every list.Because not that long ago I got bucked of a horse and fell in the bushes and one of my friend was having a jumping lesson like I was, and her horse came to a dead stop at the jump and she flipped over the horses head and her back fell on the jump...But then she got right back on and then she flipped over the horses head again and bounced off her head.

“I agree, horseback riding is much more dangerous than cheerleading. I've fallen off countless amounts of times and I've actually been pretty lucky, but I fell off right before Christmas and my leg got stepped on, it broke. The only one you can depend on is your horse and you have to have a 110% connection to make it work. ”

“horse back riding ... harder than cheerleading ... ur kidding right ... omg that is sooo hilarious , have u ever thought of being a comedian. ohh no ur leg broke poor baby (NOT)i was out of CHEER for 3 months cause i had 2 have surgery and pins put in my bone then i found out that i was allergic to the matirial they put in my hand and now it has been almost eight months since it happened ... uh yeah still not better and now i have athritice cause the brake waz so bad i also damaged my tenden, my nees pop whenever i walk or bend them and yet i still go on with cheer nomatter what even with the thought in my head that i could die from this sport at any moment but something that keeps me going is the saying " practice makes perfect is NOT saying it's a way of life!"”

“ok. sorry 2 say. but i dont think horsebackriding is rly a sport. or as dangerous as cheerleading. and dont say i say this bcuz im a cheerleader. i also go horsebakriding. and i took lessons. i realize that the horse can do anything at any time, and ive fallen multiply times and been stepped on, but nothing serious. as long as u no wat ur doing u should b able to stay on. seriously. cheerleading is more dangerous, for 1, we're throwing girls into the air, sometimes on hard floors or tracks. tumbling also is dangerous. you could land wrong, break ur leg or ankles, or if you dont make it all the way around u may even end up breaking your neck. yes i do think horseback riding is dangerous, do i think cheerleading is MORE dangerous? yes. it is, and its a fact. not my opinion”

“I think horseback riding should be number one, overall there are at least 10,000 horseback riding related deaths a year in the U.S alone, and that's strictly human deaths, their are many horse deaths as well. When a cheerleader falls yes she can break bones get a concussion and get seriously injured. But their is not chance of a 1500lbs animal landing on top of her. Also, i was reading some of the cheerleading one of the girls arguments was that in cheerleading you have a first aid kit and stretcher waiting for injuries and blah blah blah, i would like to point out that every sport does, even football which came in last, and horseback riding, honey both those sports get the whole damn ambulence paramedics and all, not just the stretcher and first aid kit. Also no matter how good you are at riding accidents happy and you can easily break your neck, break you back, shatter bones, crack you skull, snap bones, damage tendons, rip ligaments, become paralyzed, be knocked into a comma, or die, within a split second, one little mistake, one misjudged distance, one lost stirrup, one bad step, one unsteady landing and your life can be over.
And honestly after horseback this list is crap anyway, i mean no offence but bullriding is waaaaaay more dangerous than cheerleading, no contest. So really just suck it up cheerleaders, if your so tuff, that should be easy enough for you to do.”
